Visual Culture and Creativity

​​

This advanced studio course combines ​topics in contemporary art with visual and material culture to inspire and guide student art projects. Students research and share current events from the art world such as international exhibits, controversies, crimes, aspects of the art market, and innovations from contemporary artists. I have developed unique activities that reveal students’ awareness of their own creative process and elevate strategies to increase ideation and innovation. This is an exciting course open to all UTA art majors and provides a unique opportunity to build their portfolio and their inherent creativity.

​​Education Pedagogy: Elementary instruction in art education

​

Child development theory and creativity are examined in relation to contemporary practice in the elementary art classroom.  This course is designed to provide a foundation in curriculum design and teaching practice for future teachers working in elementary school contexts. The goal of the course is for students to understand principles and instructional strategies for engaging in meaningful, inclusive, and culturally responsive curriculum that is balanced across the disciplines of art. To achieve this, four overlapping features of teaching—the personal, the pedagogical, the curricular, and the professional—are addressed through a range of creative projects, readings, in-class activities, field work, and written reflection.

Syllabus

​

Honors Art Appreciation
